1. Personal Information I Collect

To fulfill your order, you must provide me with certain information (which you authorized Etsy to provide to me), such as:
* Your name
* Email address
* Postal address
* Payment information
* The details of the product that you’re ordering

You may also choose to provide me with additional personal information (for a custom order, for example), if you contact me directly through Etsy Messages or via email.

2. Legal Bases for Collecting, Using, and Sharing Personal Information

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requires that I explain the legal bases I rely on to collect, use, and share your personal information. I rely on a number of legal bases, including:

* Provision of Services: As needed to provide my services, such as when I use your information to fulfill your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support.
* Affirmative Consent: When you have provided your explicit consent, which you may revoke at any time, such as by signing up for my mailing list.
* Compliance with Legal Obligations: If necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order, or in connection with a legal claim, such as retaining information about your purchases if required by tax or commercial law in Spain.
* Legitimate Interests: As necessary for the purpose of my legitimate interests, provided those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as:
1. Providing and improving my services. I use your information to provide the services you requested and in my legitimate interest to improve my products.
2. Compliance with the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use. I use your information as necessary to comply with my obligations under the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use.

3. Information Sharing and Disclosure

Information about my customers is important to my business. I share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:

* Etsy: I share information with Etsy as necessary to provide you my services and comply with my obligations under both the Etsy Seller Policy and Etsy Terms of Use.
* Service Providers: I engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to my shop, such as delivery and shipping companies. I will share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.
* Business Transfers: If I sell or merge my business, I may disclose your information as part of that transaction, only to the extent permitted by law.
* Compliance with Laws: I may collect, use, retain, and share your information if I have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to:
* Respond to legal process or to government requests (such as tax audits).
* Enforce my agreements, terms, and policies.
* Prevent, investigate, and address fraud and other illegal activity, security, or technical issues.
* Protect the rights, property, and safety of my customers, or others.

4. Data Retention

I retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide you with my services and as described in my Privacy Policy. However, I may also be required to retain this information to comply with my legal and regulatory obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce my agreements.

According to Spanish tax and commercial regulations, business transaction data and invoices must be retained for a specific period. Therefore, I generally keep your data for the following time period: 4 years.

5. Transfers of Personal Information Outside the EU

I may store and process your information through third-party hosting services in the US and other jurisdictions. As a result, I may transfer your personal information to a jurisdiction with different data protection and government surveillance laws than your jurisdiction.

If I am deemed to transfer information about you outside of the European Union, I ensure that valid and recognized legal mechanisms are used—such as European Commission approved Standard Contractual Clauses or active data privacy frameworks—to ensure your personal data is adequately protected.

6. Your Rights

If you reside in certain territories, including the EU, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal information. While some of these rights apply generally, certain rights apply only in certain limited cases. I describe these rights below:

* Access: You may have the right to access and receive a copy of the personal information I hold about you by contacting me using the contact information below.
* Change, Restrict, Delete: You may also have rights to change, restrict my use of, or delete your personal information. Absent exceptional circumstances (like where I am required to store data for legal or tax reasons), I will generally delete your personal information upon request.
* Object: You can object to (i) my processing of some of your information based on my legitimate interests and (ii) receiving marketing messages from me after providing your express consent to receive them. In such cases, I will delete your personal information unless I have compelling and legitimate grounds to continue using that information or if it is needed for legal reasons.
* Complain: If you reside in the EU and wish to raise a concern about my use of your information (and without prejudice to any other rights you may have), you have the right to do so with your local data protection authority. In Spain, this authority is the Agencia Española de Protección de Datos (AEPD).

7. How to Contact Me

For purposes of EU data protection law, I, [Your Full Name], am the data controller of your personal information. If you have any questions or concerns, you may contact me directly at:

* Email: caxite.privacy.policy [@] inbox.uk.com

*Please note: If a customer contacts me to access, correct, or delete personal information held by Etsy, I will refer them to Etsy or request assistance from the platform, as Etsy acts as an independent data controller for that specific data.*
